Scripture on Methodist

Matthew 22:37-40 New Testament
"Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
James 2:26 New Testament
"As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead."
1 John 4:20-21 New Testament
"Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister."
Proverbs 22:3 Old Testament
"The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and pay the penalty."
Proverbs 14:12 Old Testament
"There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death."
The Bottom Line
God demands that our faith prove itself in how we treat people — words without actions are a lie.

Prayer

Jesus taught us to pray boldly for what we need (Luke 11:9-10), including the strength to live out our faith.

Father, I want my faith to matter — not just in my mind or my Sunday, but in how I actually treat people around me. I confess that I often separate belief from behavior, thinking right doctrine is enough. But Your Word says faith without works is dead. Give me courage to see the person in front of me the way You see them. Show me one specific way I can love someone today, not in feeling but in action. And guard my heart against the pride that makes me think my good intentions are the same as obedience. Help me be methodical about following You — not haphazard, but careful and consistent. In Jesus' name, Amen.
